[She could practically feel the heat radiating from her cheeks at this proximity.]

You should. Now's as good a time as any.

[braavado]

[She sighs, and finally drops her hands, though her face is still red.]

I don't want to add to all the stress he's feeling right now. And we should focus on finding a way to break the contract, shouldn't we?

[backwordscompatible]

[And what if we don't? The thought was in the forefront of her mind. They'd had sixteen weeks. Gone so far as to attempt to summon another demon. Conner even went to the Network himself, asking for help.]

You might be surprised how much of a stress reliever being with someone you care about that much can be. It takes your mind off things, if only for a moment.

[braavado]

[Korra twists her hands together nervously.]

I--I know. It's why I'm here and...I decided I wouldn't really try to hide how I felt or anything. I'm here if he needs me.

I just...don't want to make things really complicated right now. I made a mess of things back in my world before. I don't really want to do that again.

[She lifted her head from Korra's shoulder, though her arms remained loosely wrapped around her.]

How would it be complicated?

You like him, and he likes you. You're both unattached...it really doesn't get much simpler than that.

[braavado]

[Korra clams up, thinking Haven makes everything complicated.. She shakes her head.]

There's just too much going on. [She looks away, not meeting Zatanna's eyes.] Sorry...I must sound like such a ...a downer or something.

[backwordscompatible]

A little bit.

...but I get it. I mean, I still think you're wasting the present by worrying about what might happen in the future. But I get why you're worried.

[braavado]

[Feeling like anything she's going to say is just going to make things worse, Korra leans back against Zatanna for a little while, quiet. Part of her does wish she could just jump in like she would've months ago.

But that was before Haven.]

I should...probably go and meet up with Kal. [They haven't checked on the clones for a few hours now, and Korra worries that something might happen to them while they're away.] But I'll be back soon.

[backwordscompatible]

[Zatann let her lean, pressing the smallest amount of her own body weight in return.]

If that's what you want.

This is your place too, Korra. For as long as you want. I'm sure the boys won't mind.

[braavado]

[Don't mind if she just sits here with Zee for a little longer, drawing some comfort from the her presence at her back. It's kind of been a stressful few days.]

Thanks, Zee.

[backwordscompatible]

Anytime.

[She could relate; sometimes, a comforting physical presence could really help. It'd helped her when she was dying in the Labrynth. When she woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare. And Korra was a friend. Almost like a sister. Family.]

[It was the least she could do for her.]
